What is the best reason for a prospective student to choose your school?

"Why choose Johns Hopkins? Because of its unique atmosphere. The academic experience at Hopkins is highly personalized, similar to that of a small liberal arts college, but with all the amenities and opportunities of a larger research institution. I also really love that Hopkins has a sprawling campus in the center of a cosmopolitan city. Whether I'm tanning on the Hopkins 'beach' with my friends or downtown at an Orioles game, there's always plenty to do in Baltimore!"

Elena Fedyszyn, Class of 2009

"Johns Hopkins combines the resources of a major research university with the atmosphere of a liberal arts college. Students have the best of both worlds. Hopkins students also have a substantial educational impact on one another. They are highly motivated and eagerly take advantage of all the academic opportunities made available to them. They are not uni-dimensional; they are just as engaged outside the classroom. Ours are students prepared to make a difference."

Paula P. Berger, Dean of Undergraduate Education and Vice Provost at Krieger School of Arts and Sciences
